Heya all

Anyone able to suggest places in Canberra or around Sydney that can supply bodykits for 4 door R33, as the quick look I had and phone calls to Bodyform today indicate that the 2 door and 4 door have different mount points for all components except the front bar, and my choice of Veilside kit appears to be not possible.

Also am after somewhere reputable that can do an auto->manual conversion.

Thanks in advance.

Thats a Impule R33R kit I believe, I was going to get one from JSpec (who said copies were made of the original kit he got for Danny) - but dont waste your time, I've been trying for several months and got nowhere.

I have recently ordered some side skirts and rear bars from OS, as shown in the attachment below. Unfortunatly there dosent seem to be mucch choice with 4 doors (if you dont want a standard looking set of skirts)

I believe carmate.com.au have some kits for R33 as well as R34 sedans, dont know how good they are though. BTW does anyone know if the R34 front bumpers or any other bodykit parts will fit a R33 SII sedan? Because they look fairly similar except the headlights. Although i have never seen an R34 sedan in the flesh.

      Have you put an aftermarket oil pressure gauge on and verified your oil pressure?   Noise being on the block, on exhaust side, how high up the block does it seem to be? It could be the VCT system getting cranky, especially if it's mainly at idle, and when warm, as that'll be your lowest point for oil pressure. Could be showing that oil passages / VCT solenoid are blocking.

      Well, hydraulic lifters will get noisy if they are dirty/fouled in some way, and exactly how that manifests will depend on exactly what schmutz is where. There is a procedure on here somewhere for dismantling and soaking/cleaning them. Replacing them with new is about 50% of the work and about 5% of the money!

      Ticking Sound On Idle - Rb25

      Thanks for the reply @GTSBoy this is is a hydraulic lifter engine. Yea right i did not realise the lifters were supposed to be compressible while installed. I could push them down but i had to lean almost my while body weight on them.  I have never heard of a lifter/ lifters ticking only at hot idle and getting worse the hotter it gets. I have owned a few jdm cars with noisy lifters. This noise is slightly more subtle, it is more of a sharp gentle metalic tic than the solid and more loud tapping I've heard on lifters. I have used a metal rod, alloy tube, hose and stethoscope and could not find the source of the tick. But it appears to be loudest on the actual engine block behind the exhaust cam gear and next to the oil filter. I had mate (40 year old mechanic) go over it with me and he couldn't find it either..  Could it be a cam seal issue of some sort?  Cheers

      This seems problematic and unlikely at the same time. Vanilla RB2Xs have hydraulic lifters. They do have "zero" clearance, but only when running with oil pressure inside them. When not running, you should be able to compress them and obtain heaps of clearance. RB26s and Neos have solid lifters. They should have ~0.3mm and ~0.5mm on the inlet and exhaust respectively. If they have zero clearance then bad things are happening. With nothing else being wrong, it would mean that the valves would be held slightly (ever so slightly) open when they are supposed to be closed and it should have all sorts of problems when running, caused by leakage in/out through the valves. Or, zero clearance can indicate severe valve seat recession. None of it is good. Have you used a piece of hose as a stethoscope to try to localise the noise?
